Ingredients
- 4 slices Low sodium bacon
- 4 Large eggs
- 1 tablespoon Unsalted butter
- 0.25 teaspoon Freshly ground black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Fresh chives (optional, for garnish)
Directions
Step 1
Place the low sodium bacon slices in a cold non-stick skillet in a single layer. Start cooking the bacon over medium heat.
Step 2
Cook the bacon for about 8-10 minutes, flipping occasionally, until it reaches your desired level of crispiness. Use tongs to transfer the cooked bacon to a plate lined with paper towels to drain any excess fat.
Step 3
While the bacon is cooking, crack the eggs into a bowl and whisk until the yolks and whites are fully combined.
Step 4
In a separate non-stick skillet or frying pan, melt the unsalted butter over medium-low heat.
Step 5
Pour the beaten eggs into the skillet, stirring gently with a spatula. Allow the eggs to cook for a few moments before stirring again.
Step 6
Continue to cook the eggs gently, stirring every now and then to achieve a soft, creamy texture, for about 3-4 minutes or until the eggs are just set.
Step 7
Sprinkle the cooked eggs with freshly ground black pepper for seasoning.
Step 8
Plate the scrambled eggs alongside the crispy bacon. If desired, garnish with finely chopped fresh chives for a hint of color and flavor.
Step 9
Serve immediately and enjoy your low sodium breakfast.
